Experience the thrill of swimming alongside wild dolphins in the pristine waters off Vila Franca do Campo, Azores. This unique adventure invites you to connect with nature by observing dolphins in their natural habitat, providing an ethical alternative to encounters in captivity.
Begin your journey at the marina, where you'll check in and gear up with provided neoprene suits and windguards. After a safety briefing and an introduction to the local dolphin species, your guide and skipper will lead you to a specialized Zodiac RIB boat for your expedition.
As you head out to sea, expert lookouts help locate dolphin pods, ensuring the best chance of sightings. When conditions are right, you'll have the opportunity to enter the water in small groups, maintaining a respectful distance while dolphins may approach out of curiosity.
Depending on the season, you might encounter up to four different dolphin species, including Common, Bottlenose, Striped, and Risso’s dolphins. The experience is available from late autumn to early spring, when water temperatures range from 16°C to 22°C.
